Methylation of CpGs located in promoters in normal tissues

Plots a heatmap of the methylation of CpGs located in a promoter, in normal tissues. X-axis corresponds to the CpGs position (related to TSS).

Usage

normal_tissues_methylation(
  gene,
  nt_up = 1000,
  nt_down = 200,
  values_only = FALSE
)

Arguments

gene

Name of selected gene

nt_up

Number of nucleotides upstream the TSS to analyse (by default 1000, maximum value 5000)

nt_down

Number of nucleotides downstream the TSS to analyse (by default 200, maximum value 5000)

values_only

Boolean (FALSE by default). If set to TRUE, the function will return the methylation values of all cytosines in the promoter instead of the heatmap.

Value

Heatmap of the methylation of CpGs located in a promoter, in normal tissues. If values_only = TRUE, methylation values are returned instead.

Examples

normal_tissues_methylation(gene = "TDRD1", 1000, 0)
